Downtime
The server will be taken down sometime next week for some hardware upgrades. I do not have an exact time just yet, but as soon as I know I will reply to this thread as well as update this post. Hardware should arrive at the datacenter Monday, but the company who is building boincgames.com will also ...

Beta Phase
Will be making the final payment on the site development this coming week. Once that's done, I'll obtain the files and database information. It will then be loaded onto boincgames.com's server where we will enter the public beta testing of the site. I expect the beta testing to last until December, ...

Spread the word
Anyone here willing to go to each active teams web site or other form of communication to invite them to join the competition?
We are getting really close to beta testing phase and I'd like to have some other teams hop on for that testing.

While writing this post and the one on WCG earlier this week it's come to my attention that I need to appoint someone else to do this who is better at writing than me.

Re: Volunteers to help run and maintain the site
Stats are updating on the marathon now.
Pretty sure the Sprint will need something custom done on it, so I've made a post on the WCG forums asking how to get it done.
If they don't give me access to do hourly updates, then WCG will be omitted from the Sprint.

Would four of these https://www.newegg.com/samsung-883-dct- ... klink=true
In RAID 10 offer a good bit more performance than a SATA HDD?
I'm gonna run the operating system off the HDD, but the web site and database will run off the RAID array.

Anyone wanna help find some faster storage options for this server? I know for sure the 2TB spinners are slow. It's only got PCIe 2.0 I think. So would a PCIe drive be faster than SATA SSDs? If so, how much faster? The RAID controller supports RAID 10 so I could get 4 reasonably sized SSDs and run t...

It's not that big a deal, just want you guys to get familiar with it all. The Sprints dates will be setup and known prior to the start of the year (or within' a couple weeks) anyway so it will only need to be done once anyway.

Re: Volunteers to help run and maintain the site
Make sure you edit the start and stop time. The Sprint is scheduled to start at 25 minutes after the hour. I think they'll be better to start on the hour, since the stats will update on the hour. Also, do not select the Sprint project. Make sure it's set so a random sprint will be selected. I know y...

Those of you with admin. So you guys can get familiar with how to work it.

Re: Volunteers to help run and maintain the site
Has to be a different username that you aren't using for regular user.
The admin control panel is a different login, but shares the same user table. So usernames have to be unique.
